    Just a point to consider that I didn’t see you mention: a lot of times those aftermarket controllers don’t work well with linux. The auxiliary/extra buttons aren’t able to be used. This won’t really be the case for steam controller since it’s made by valve and will have all the proper driver support built in.

    My Razer wolverine V2 is a prime example.

      Try switching between Xinput and Dinput mode. You can get the extra buttons to work with one of them usually (AFAIK).
